| Quotations by Stephen King |
 Books are the perfect entertainment - Books are the perfect entertainment: no commercials, no batteries, hours of enjoyment for each dollar spent. What I wonder is why everybody doesn't carry a book around for those inevitable dead spots in life.Harry Potter is about confronting fears - Harry Potter is about confronting fears, finding inner strength and doing what is right in the face of adversity. Twilight is about how important it is to have a boyfriend. Hug and kiss whoever helped you - Hug and kiss whoever helped get you - financially, mentally, morally, emotionally - to this day. Parents, mentors, friends, teachers. If you're too uptight to do that, at least do the old handshake thing, but I recommend a hug and a kiss. Don't let the sun go down without saying thank you to someone, and without admitting to yourself that absolutely no one gets this far alone. I write to find out what I think - I write to find out what I think, and what I found out writing The Colorado Kid was that maybe -- I say just maybe -- it's the beauty of the mystery that allows us to live sane as we pilot our fragile bodies through this demolition-derby world. As a species we're fundamentally insane - As a species we're fundamentally insane. Put more than two of us in a room, we pick sides and start dreaming up reasons to kill one another. Why do you think we invented politics and religion? - Stephen King Talent is cheaper than table salt - Talent is cheaper than table salt. What separates the talented individual from the successful one is a lot of hard work. Would-be writers who don't read - I am always chilled and astonished by the would-be writers who ask me for advice and admit, quite blithely, that they "don't have time to read." This is like a guy starting up Mount Everest saying that he didn't have time to buy any rope or pitons. |
